MALDI-8030
The MALDI-8030 EasyCare dual-polarity linear MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer delivers speed and accuracy within a compact design. You can increase throughput and save time with its 200 Hz solid-state laser. The system’s design includes a rapid-moving sample stage and load lock chamber for fast sample introduction and data acquisition.
The MALDI-8030 EasyCare is uniquely suited for a variety of applications, from peptides and proteins to polymers characterization and more. The system is fully contained within its compact design, and with the addition of the MALDI-TOF Imaging Starter Kit, MS imaging on a benchtop system is now possible.

A compact, benchtop footprint designed to save laboratory space
The system spans a width of only 450 mm and easily fits into tight spaces on a laboratory bench. It is also light for easy transport, weighing only 92 kg. While this system is small, it still has high sensitivity and resolving power for a linear MALDI-TOF MS.
Best-in-Class sensitivity and resolution for accurate sample analysis
The patented WideBore optics utilizes near normal (on-axis) incidence of the MALDI laser beam and a wide orifice to produce outstanding ion beam transmission efficiency and performance. This design also reduces contamination of the ion optics from desorbed samples. This is particularly beneficial during high-throughput MS imaging experiments.
Routine maintenance in your hands
MALDI-8030 EC units enable users to maintain their systems by performing instrument maintenance through manually cleaning the instrument optics. Optics can be easily accessed by opening the instrument side panel and then removed for cleaning. The MALDI solutions software that comes with the EasyCare units allows end users to perform instrument tuning with two options: detector only, or a full tuning workflow, which involves the manual optics cleaning, as well as deflector and detector tuning. This offers the opportunity to improve instrument performance without the need for a service visit.
